Re: What did you do to your truck today!
I bolted down the cover over the manual transmission. My cab was an automatic so I had to drill holes. I then tried to install the gas tank but realized it had some weep holes in it. Today I will weld up holes and pour in some gas tank sealer. Hopefully that should take care of that. Does anyone know why these gastanks behind seat were not painted?

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Got my seatbelt retractors finished. Turned out good. They started out as Parchment colored. Props to 454Stepside for them.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Took a clay bar to the hood area to see how it would work....great. Building a frame for my new leather seats. Washed and fueled her and went for doughnuts and coffee. Whew, I'm tired.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
I bought these as a complete set tonight. I remember back in the day we would buy them from a small tire shop here in A****er. I can check for you and see if they still sell them. They also used to sell them with a blue bowtie.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Years ago I briefly worked for a local Chevy dealer. I was getting some parts one day and a customer was buying center cap emblems. They were perfect! Black, gold bowtie, and gold ring (these look like gold bowtie and silver[?] ring). I asked the parts guy what application they were for and he said the customer was buying them for a Monte Carlo. I don't know if I still have the records from the first couple of six-hole ralleys we put them on, but I know they were for a Monte Carlo.

Drove her to the hardware store, where the carb stuck open and the battery died. Had to call a buddy to come jump me. Good times
